Help[Opinions] Re: Leda / Letha
in reply to a message by Ottilie
I would not have thought to pronounce Leda as LAY-da. It's not completely illogical, it just wouldn't have crossed my mind, so I imagine it might require some teaching to make that happen.
Leda is a way better look than Letha for me, because I just see 'lethal' when I look at Letha.
I don't like LAY-da because, even if it does have history, it just blends in with all the "ay" sounding names around. I don't want to demote it, but it feels like another one in the sea of Jada, Kayla, Taylor, Aidan, Hayden, Braden, Layla, Haylie, etc. I'm tired of that "ay" sound.
